ISVR2024 Engineering Applications
Knowledge and understanding
Expand core knowledge by independent research and searching of material. Apply understanding to actual problems.
Cognitive (thinking) skills
Take existing knowledge and programme content and apply to realistic engineering problems to find potential solutions within specific constraints.
Key transferable skills
Numerical/analytical modelling.
Report writing and presentation.

To apply the knowledge in the four main core areas of acoustics, fluids, vibration and systems (signal processing) to problem based learning individual and group activities.
Reinforce the key core disciplines.
Apply knowledge to modelling and predictions.
Report findings.
Deepen the understanding and interpretation in the core areas.
Not specifically identifiable. Typically DSP programming and core vibration/acoustics/fluid dynamics principles involved.
